"I'm very sorry, Your Highness, but I have very bad news to tell you."
Arestle, the palace on the top of the mountain, the astrologer Serin once again stood in front of the throne, speaking to Doron Charlemagne.
"It doesn't matter, whatever you say."
Doron Charlemagne didn't say anything extra, and his expression didn't change in any way because of the bad news Serling said. He just asked Serling to continue speaking. As a king, he would not express his anger because of any news. For the people under my command, the rules on earth do not apply here.
"The team that went to the north to intercept the rebels has been completely wiped out. After a period of silence, Xingxing told me the bad news. Your Highness, what will you do next?"
Serin told the news calmly, and the content was naturally not something that made people feel at ease.
"..."
Doron Charlemagne was silent for a while. He really did not expect this result. He asked two great knights and an archmage to intercept an official mage and catch up with a giant dragon and its sister who could not fully show their strength. It will fail, which is really unreasonable.
"Can you know more details?"
After the silence ended, Doron Charlemagne asked Serin a question. He no longer cared about the result. Although he suffered heavy losses, what was more important was to find out why the team that betrayed Arestle behaved like this. strength.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness, there was a time when the view of the stars was obscured by the void, so I didn't know the information about the battle."
"But judging from subsequent observations, the team composed of Black Burn, Paul, and Remo failed to leave us any information about the things they held. I'm afraid the battle was not even a balance of power.
Serin said that she had no way of knowing what happened during the battle. Ciel asked "One" in advance to help cover up what happened there with the power of the void, which greatly restricted Serin's observation. .
"I didn't expect these existences to grow so fast. This does not include the knight named Wang Yu who has disappeared. He should be running things related to the Dark Night Faith."
"The recent growth of this church is quite terrifying. The series of benefits that can be obtained by believing in this night god have made a large number of beings highly respect it. There are even scholars in the kingdom who secretly believe in this god..."
"..."
Putting his palm in contact with his chin, Doron Charlemagne analyzed to himself. After a period of silence, he made up his mind.
"Selin, please step back and let the Minister of Military Affairs come over."
He waved his hand, signaling Serin to leave, and asked another minister under him to come here.
The astrologer withdrew, and the Minister of Military Affairs walked to the throne with his head lowered, knelt on one knee, and saluted respectfully.
"Gerald, let me tell you some very bad news first. Remo has died in the campaign against the rebels. I hope you can find another right-hand man who suits your needs."
Doron Charlemagne did not hide anything, and directly and coldly told the news of the death of the opponent's capable man.
"My subordinate understands."
Military Minister Gerald's tone was still respectful. Although he was angry at the death of his subordinate who he had cultivated for a long time and was very easy to use, he did not need to and could not show it externally.
"I personally thought there was no need to go to war over those few people who had betrayed the kingdom, but now it seems that things are not that simple. The threat from the other party is rising much faster than I previously expected. So, you can sort out the news. one time."
Doron Charlemagne said, although his words were a little confused, but the Minister of Military Affairs below suddenly raised his head, with a trace of astonishment in his pupils.
"Your Highness, what do you mean?"
Gerald asked with some uncertainty.
"That's right, I originally didn't want to associate our things with those guys. They are obviously aliens to us, and this is also the rule that we and other human kingdoms have always followed, not to allow other races to intervene. our own turmoil
In contention. "
"But we have more important things to do now. This kingdom needs a stable situation. As for those rebels, let's let those who are targeting them deal with it."
"The information about the battle that took place near the Fading Mountains was passed on by you, so we can have a general understanding of the power of the Dragon Worship Cult, right?"
Doron Charlemagne methodically stated why he wanted Gerrard to do what he did.
"Inform the Dragon Cult that the target they are looking for is heading north. The general direction is the old land of Seventan. Don't they want the giant dragon Sieg? Let them go."
"As for us, let's focus on the next thing."
After explaining the reasons, Doron Charlemagne gave his order to the Minister of War, Gerald, in a summary form.
"yes!"
After receiving the order, the Minister of Military Affairs did not ask the king any more questions, but quickly began to perform what he should complete, saluted, and turned to leave.
"Informing the uncomfortable group of Dragon Cult members, after careful consideration, it is indeed a good idea. This will not consume Aleister's own strength. Those Dragon Cults also have enough strength to Deal with those traitors."
"In the final analysis, Aleister has no better means to deal with a group of potential enemies wandering outside the kingdom. It is very irrational to waste limited resources on them."
"And next, will His Majesty finally take action against the Night Blade organization? Is this the path you have chosen to divide rather than destroy it?"
Thinking in his mind, Gerald began to prepare a series of things to do next.
"Swipe!"
A blood-colored chain was thrown by Wang Yu towards the vast snowfield. The sharp spearhead at the front penetrated the thick snow layer and hit the target Wang Yu was aiming for, and was then pulled back by it.
"That's great. Animals in cold areas are especially fat."
Holding the snow rabbit, which was even bigger than his own head, in his hand, Wang Yu inserted the knife made of blood into the snow rabbit's flesh. The blood spread and crawled inside the prey, and finally separated the snow rabbit's flesh completely. Flesh. Read the book
"Do you have to get something to eat wherever you go?"
Edward sat in the back seat of the blood refining sleigh made by Aviya, looked at Wang Yu who casually threw out the chain and picked up a fat rabbit from the snow, and asked casually.
After getting rid of the three people who came to rob and kill them, Wang Yu and the others began to go deep into the snowfield and continue north without stopping. As they moved north, the land began to be completely covered with ice and snow.
It snows all year round and keeps falling. Originally, there were parts of the area that were not covered by ice and snow. But at this moment, as long as there is no human intervention further north, it is absolutely white and completely covered by ice and snow.
This also liberated Wang Yu, who no longer had to rely on his legs to catch up. Under good road conditions, the speed of the alchemy sled was still faster than his normal running.
"No, I have no intention of letting you down when it comes to eating. Don't ask me, just tell me whether you want to eat or not."
Wang Yu curled his lips and immediately began to dismantle the rabbit. Not to mention, this animal living in the snowfield was a bit unlucky, but the flesh exposed after the fur was peeled off was truly amazing just by looking at it. Let people feel the rich fat and tender meat.
"eat."
He answered without any hesitation. When he got along with his few true friends, Edward, who usually had to maintain his image, no longer had to worry about what was there and what was not.
"good!"
After giving Edward a thumbs up, Wang Yu lit the magic fire with one hand and held the rabbit meat in the other hand, ready to perform hand-roasted rabbit.
"Snapped."
"How can you be so greedy? Seriously, bring it and I'll make it for you before you eat it."
Wang Yu's head was knocked by a hand that appeared out of thin air. The girl leaned out half of her body from the Seed of Eden space and snatched the unlucky rabbit from Wang Yu's hand. No, it was rabbit meat now. past.
"yeah!"
Edward made a fist gesture towards Wang Yu who was touching his head, and began to imitate Charles' tricks, but this was almost what he really thought in his heart. Wang Yu was not very particular about it. Anyway, he could still enjoy it if he baked it directly, but Edward has learned a lot about Aviya's craftsmanship, and it's way ahead of someone like Wang Yu.
"Okay, let's wait and eat."
Wang Yu shrugged his shoulders, leaned on the sled seat, and started chatting with Edward behind him about recent events.
"We are going to go to the professor's hometown to take a look. Many of the messy things recently have some vague relationship with that place. That group of existences called the Dragon Worship Cult are really disgusting. They are causing trouble everywhere. Before they fade away, You should already know what's going on over there.
After briefly mentioning his future goals to Edward, Wang Yushun asked him about his knowledge of the Dragon Worship Cult.
"Yes, I can see intuitively through the prayer communication network that the power of the dragon and the power of the Dragon Worship Cult are both amazing. The battle between them will bring about a real natural disaster."
"Many innocent people were injured. Fortunately, the Church of Night, the Church of Light, and several branches of the Church of the Goddess of Wealth and the God of Nature came to help at that time, otherwise more people would have died."
"However, because of this incident, many people who were helped by the Night Church chose to join the Night Church, and the spread of Lady Night's faith became more and more widespread, but..."
Nodding in response and then sighing, Edward still didn't want to see innocent people suffer.
"Well, Ms. Night probably doesn't want to gain more believers because of this kind of thing, but in the final analysis, this matter itself has nothing to do with us. Faith can help people who are unable to resist gain some strength to survive in disasters. .”
Wang Yu could naturally understand what Edward's unfinished sentence meant.
"There was also a battle between the Dragon Cult and the giant dragon in the Ashes Field. A black dragon tore up the land in that area, rushed out, fought with the Dragon Cult over there, and finally disappeared. However, no one lived in that area to begin with, so no innocent people died.
Edward told Wang Yu the news he had learned recently.
"Ashes Field? Then down there is the Capital of Sin. It is indeed a black dragon. It can stay in such a place. No wonder the Dragon Worship Cult can't find it."
I was slightly shocked by the news that Edward told. Wang Yu, a guy who has read a lot of secrets of the mainland, knows where is the place under the Ashes Field, the eternal purgatory prepared for sinners, in what era was it built, and in what era? The race built is unknown.
Anyway, Sieg's evaluation is that if he turns into a giant dragon and doesn't come out within an hour, he may die inside. So how terrifying is the body of the black dragon hiding in the Capital of Crime...
The two chatted about recent events while the alchemy sleigh drove them north at high speed.
As the majestic figure of Santa Ana Snowfield gradually appeared completely in front of Wang Yu who was eating roast rabbit, they reached the first node on their way to the Endless Sea.
